1) Sony e-readers do not come with power supply.
2) While charged on the USB port the reader cannot be used and the host shouldn't go into sleep mode...
3) Today are very common the chargers that give 5v on a Male-mini-usb connector but if I connect that charger to the reader it does not charge because the reader seems to need power on 2 additional pins of the USB norm...

then:

Where can I find a tiny "adapter" (not cable) Female-Mini-usb-<->-Sony-power-plug??
e-readers use the same power plug as the PSPs, this thing "has to be" available somewhere....

please let me know..... I refuse getting yet "another " charger...
